Abstract

Clematis is an important horticultural and medicinal genus in Ranunculaceae. Here, we report three complete chloroplast genome sequences of C. acerifolia, C. smilacifolia, and C. uncinata. The chloroplast genomes were found to be 159,552 bp, 159,624 bp, and 159,524 bp in length, and GC contents were 37.9, 37.9, and 38.0%, respectively. The sequence of each species contained 112 unique genes, including 29 tRNA, 4 rRNA, and 79 protein-coding genes. These chloroplast genome sequences provide knowledge to the genetic variations and evolution of Clematis and Ranunculaceae.
